So it seems there's a $10,000 blogging scholarship, and ScienceBlog's own Shelley Batts has made the cut! (Second year in a row!) She's one of 20 finalists and, I believe, the only science blogger among the 20. And she could really use the money. And wouldn't it be way cool to have a woman science blogger win this? So just cruise on over there and vote for Shelley. I want to vote for her a second time but they won't let me. Guess I'll have to go log on to some different computers and vote again...Hey, if you, unlike me, have a job, you could vote at work AND at home!!!! I'll have to speak to Mr. Zuska about this...

Today is a big day for American Presidential politics, the so-called Super Tuesday when citizens in 24 states vote or caucus with their fellows to help select the candidates of the two main political parties. I live in one of those 24 states and Mrs. R. and I vote regular as clockwork.
I've been thinking about the Electoral College, that mechanism by which voters in the U.S. indirectly elect their president.
Are you registered? Do you know where to vote? You can find information and register (if you are not) here (this is an Obama site, but it works for everyone):
Thank you Zuska!
